I to was one of Dad's 8 children. Like my brother, I did not meet him until I was into adulthood. I still have the small jewelry box he gave me the first time we met, nearly 26 years ago. My heart is heavy and my sincere condolences go out to the entire family. God bless you Dad.

I remember my Father when I was 3 years old and did not meet him again until I was 23. He always impressed me as a hard working man and he gave me some good advice about being successful. It is amazing that we have a family of 11 other brothers and sisters. It would be great to communicate with all of you. My full brothers, Alfred and Darrell LaMontagne twins give their respects to our Father. The death of our Father reminds us to use death as an advisor and live life well. We should endeavor to respect each other. My condolences to our Father’s entire family.

I am sorry, I forgot to add, to all of the unnamed children of Gerry, may you have peace in the turmoil this has brought you. In those which have been mentioned, I am truly sorry, as you have had the pleasure of knowing this man and you will miss him immensely, yet you will one day see him again, on the day of Judgment. May we all rejoice that on that day, all families, will be brought together as the unity as intended with the love, peace and joy that is the reality of Truth. May God bless you and keep you all. Shel
